Oh well. I'm finally getting to "run like a mother" right now. I'm very curious about all your barefoot running books. I wish we could go for a run together so i could watch you run and pick your brain about all this crazy business. my PT has me running barefoot ~ 5 min every other week to keep the technique fresh in my head but then wants me to mimic the style in shoes...i really struggle with switching to a mid-foot strike, especially when i'm tired & pushing the pace. <br /><br />any plans to come to seattle anytime soon? :)Average Woman Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07552228589984570963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5283852025744717899.post-44048439822002860272011-02-24T19:02:12.439-07:002011-02-24T19:02:12.439-07:00Ooooh, 'Performance Nutrition for Runners'...Ooooh, 'Performance Nutrition for Runners' looks really good.

As I have read through blogs this week, as well as establishing my running and getting more inlove with the sport, I found that it was time for me to start reading about it also but no real direction on where to start - because like you im a busy mom and my time is precious. I saw a few here i'd love to dig my nose into.
